Explanation
A High-Intensity Activated Crosswalk (HAWK) signal is a pedestrian-activated beacon. When the signal begins flashing yellow, it means a pedestrian has pressed the button to activate the crossing sequence. Drivers should slow down and prepare to stop, as the light will soon turn solid yellow and then solid red, requiring vehicles to stop while the pedestrian crosses.
